Aubrey de Grey at the Eris Society 2005 Meeting
Permalink | View Comments (2) | Post Comment | Posted by Reason

It seems worth noting that biomedical gerontologist Aubrey de Grey recently gave a well-received presentation at the 2005 meeting of the Eris Society. For those not in the know, these get-togethers can best be described as a social meet and greet for a certain type of A-list person; libertarians, pro-science futurists, healthy life extension advocates, and representatives from some of the odd, strange and wonderful subcultures that prosper in the gaps in between. Donations to the Mprize for longevity research and a few new memberships of The Three Hundred were forthcoming from attendees who strongly agreed that the time - and state of biomedical science - is right for directed research into a cure for aging. Welcome aboard!

Excellent, now if it could be arranged, that aubrey speaks to a meet and greet of the club "Monolit" a association of the richest russians already investing into life extension research on a grand scale that would potentially be vrey good since this club represents the financial alite and the goal of this club is life extension and the members represent dozens of blilionaires investng already in life-extension research. One of them has invested half a million in one experiment alone to develop a novell anti-oxidant of unprecedent efficiency where animal tests should surface next year or so.

A russian version of the mprize site or a abstract in russian would be a worthwhile investment. (yeah, everyone understands english, shure... not!)
